Uh didn't Afleet Alex break down during his three year old season? Maybe the training contributed to the injury as opposed to the oppisite view. I mean if his bone density was so strong , why did he break down in the first place? Please dont give me the Preakness arguement because he looked pretty good in the Belmont 3 weeks later.
